After corresponding w/a noted expert on these gems, I've realized how fortunate I am to have all 5 of my adults taking f/t rat pups directly from tongs. I house 1.2 together and it sure makes feeding time easy! My Silver male feeds off tongs as well but he rarely emerges from the hide so its tough to take pics of him.
